I recently purchased the PIXMA 922 and have been having issues printing. I have put standard Staples copy paper in the lower tray. When I go to print it will sometimes print a page or two, then it gives me "Support Code 1008" error saying there is no paper. I have to open the lower tray, readjust the paper a bit, hit ok. At that point its about a 40% chance of printing another page or two, otherwise it thinks again and then gives the same error. It makes it almost impossible to print anything more then a couple pages since every few pages is spending a few minutes going back and forth with the printer. Did I get a lemon? Is there something I missed that would make it so the printer can't pick up the paper? Before I return the printer I wanted to try to get some assistance.
Thanks!

Hi Lpottenger,
The error caused by:
1. There is no paper in the cassette (lower).
2. The paper source is incorrect.
3. Paper is not loaded properly.
To resolve this, please place paper in the lower cassette, making sure that the photo paper or plain paper such as A4, B5, A5, 8" x 10" (20 x 25 cm), Letter, or Legal, or envelopes are loaded.

When the paper is in place, align the paper guides with the both edges of the paper and the press the OK button to dismiss the error.
Once set, please make sure that the printer driver is set to the lower tray:

My Pixma 922 will not use paper in bottom tray. It states "there is no paper in the upper tray. Please load and try again."
I do NOT want to use the top tray. I am trying to print an 81/2 x 11 paper from the bottom tray.
What can I do to make it use the bottome tray???

This did not fix the problem. I have tried everything. If you do a search on this, there are tons and tons of people having this exact same issue and this guy keeps repeating the same thing that does not fix the problem. Definition of insanity maybe? Too bad too this printer was my favorite I've owned until this not loading paper problem. I've even pulled the tray out to watch the rollers engage rarely.

I've been struggling with this recently and none of the other solutions on this forum seemed to be working. Just now, I tried gently pushing the paper to the back of the slot with my finger and holding it there until the printer finally took the first piece, and from there it decided to work. Posting this in case it helps anyone else

I have tried all of these so,unions multiple times over the last 10 months and nothing corrects this. The printer was only a few months old when it started doing this. I use it to print mostly 4-H things for my 4-H club but have had to get everyone to print th8ngs for me this year. How can I get this to work?

I have had my MX922 for about a year. Almost every time I print more than a few pages one will get stuck at the back of the bottom drawer. Now I am getting en error code of 1008 that there is no paper in the tray. The tray is full. I cannot copy or print anything. The last thing that happened was a page got jammed in the back of the bottom drawer. I pulled it out. It came out whole. I checked to see if there were any pieces anyhow. There is nothing.
